Incredible (but predictable) : #Microsoft has blocked the International Criminal Court's access (#ICC) to its services on the orders of the #Trump mafia.
Read that carefully : an international organisation that has no presence in the United States and no US legal rights has had its work tools blocked simply because it disagrees with the Trump administration. 🚩
Get the hell out of it right now.

Personal average tax rates in Europe: Which countries saw the biggest rise in 2024?
The tax burden on workers, composed of income tax and social security contributions, varies widely across Europe. In 2024, this burden changed significantly in some countries, with notable rises and falls.Servet Yanatma (Euronews.com)
The #mainstreaming of the #Fediverse and its "working" chattering classes youtube.com/watch?v=cVnrMGVKQa… on a negative note these are the #friendlyenemy, on a positive sense we are all in this together.
But a strong smell of the vertical path - some are more together than others, and money is the currency of this difference.
This is not native to the #openweb, but more to our "common sense" paths.
There is a signal-to-noise issue, which if you ask them they will admit, but then in practice ignore.
"Chattering classes" are a problem group in progressive movements.

Nella prima parte, una donna con capelli castani e un maglione arancione parla al telefono, esprimendo la sua preoccupazione per una lite con il marito e la sua intenzione di tornare a casa della madre per punirlo. La madre, rappresentata con capelli grigi e un maglione viola, risponde con un tono divertito e consigliando alla figlia di lasciarla venire a casa loro per punire il marito. La conversazione è in italiano e riflette un momento di umorismo familiare, evidenziando il ruolo protettivo e interventista della madre.

**« Le procureur en chef de la Cour pénale internationale a perdu l’accès à ses courriels, et ses comptes bancaires ont été gelés. »
Là, c'est le procureur de la CPI qui est bloqué et empêché par Microsoft.
Pensez-vous vraiment que les GAFAM ne s'en prennent pas ou ne s'en prendront pas à vos données comme à nos libertés, et pire, à celles de nos collectifs ⁉️ Il y a urgence, vraiment, et dire que c'est compliqué n'est pas à la hauteur de la gravité de la situation.
Refuser de recourir aux GAFAM dans le monde militant, devrait devenir une évidence. Ce n'est pas faute de le documenter. ✊

Les sanctions de Trump contre le procureur de la CPI ont mis fin au travail de la Cour
Par MOLLY QUELL - 15 mai 2025
LA HAYE, Pays-Bas (AP) – Le procureur en chef de la Cour pénale internationale a perdu l’accès à ses courriels, et ses comptes bancaires ont été gelés.
Les membres du personnel américain du tribunal de La Haye ont été informés que s’ils se rendent aux États-Unis, ils risquent d’être arrêtés.
Certaines organisations non gouvernementales ont cessé de travailler avec la CPI, et les dirigeants de l'une d'entre elles ne répondront même pas aux courriels des fonctionnaires des tribunaux.
Ce ne sont là que quelques-uns des obstacles auxquels le personnel judiciaire est confronté depuis les États-Unis. Le président Donald Trump a imposé en février des sanctions contre son procureur en chef, Karim Khan, selon des entretiens avec des responsables actuels et anciens de la CPI, des avocats internationaux et des défenseurs des droits de l'homme.
Les sanctions « empêcheront les victimes d’avoir accès à la justice », a déclaré Liz Evenson, directrice de la justice internationale à Human Rights Watch.
Trump a sanctionné le tribunal après qu'un collège de juges de la CPI, en novembre, a émis des mandats d'arrêt contre le Premier ministre israélien Benjamin Netanyahu et son ancien ministre de la Défense, Yoav Gallant.
Les juges ont trouvé des raisons de croire que le duo aurait pu commettre des crimes de guerre en restreignant l’aide humanitaire et en ciblant intentionnellement des civils dans la campagne israélienne contre le Hamas à Gaza – des accusations rejetées par les responsables israéliens.

Email is critical infrastructure in today's digitalized world. Relying on foreign hosting is not a good idea for anybody at risk of political interference because of their profession.
Hosting email locally is still very much possible, even if it gets more involved year over year. Email is the one federated protocol that we have for direct communication. Even with all of its deficiencies in security and privacy, it is the common denominator that connects people. Don't give up control over your own, most basic digital communication channel. Use local hosting companies that you can still call in an emergency, ideally within your own (maybe extended, like EU level) jurisdiction.
Context: eupolicy.social/@bert_hubert/1…
Update: As pointed out by @ilumium, depending on your threat model, using an explicitly foreign email service provider can be beneficial if your *local* government is the main threat actor. However, if the local government can physically get you or your client devices, then don't assume too much protection through the email service.

Ruscism and Nazism: different times, same patterns.

Khan has been assigned a "Specially Designated Individual" by US OFAC (by order of the 🟠) and as a US corporation, MSFT was legally required to sever any and all contractual connections with him. The guy probably doesn't even have a Netflix account now.
This is the same legal process that is used for, say, ransomware dudes or russian presidents.
If the chief prosecutor of the ICC can be arbitrarily put on the SDN, everyone can.

While disgusting, the whole story was entirely predictable:
The ICC issues arrest warrants for a key US ally => The US sanctions the ICC => US companies (Microsoft) are forced to stop serving the ICC, just like they can't serve any other sanctioned entity. More interestingly, UK companies (banks) have done the same - although unlike Microsoft, they had no legal obligation to do it.
